Difference in US and Indian Charging adapter for Nexus 5 - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys I got my Nexus 5 from my relatives in US. I live in India and after one month of use my Nexus 5's motherboard got corrupted so i had send it back to US for the replacement. I want to ask you guys that is there any difference in voltage in charging adapter of the Nexus 5 form the US w.r.t India. As I'm expecting my phone back within few days and dont want to mess it up again.

Guys anyone ?

I'm not into electronics so I can't really tell you for sure, but I've used an imported HTC One X previously and I used the charger which came with it all the time. Just bought a Rs.30 extension so that the pins could fit correctly.
But now that you've mentioned it, purchase a LG charger just to be safe.

It's same throughout the world.
And motherboard corruption is due to faulty hardware.
Your charger can only damage the battery or in some rare cases fry the interior, you can check this. If your touch screen is acting weird while charging it's buggy...

Check your HDMI port

My HDMI port was a dud. Getting a replacement. Just FYI.
Mine is a dud also. Haven't requested a replacement as of yet because I'm assuming all the G2x have problems. I'm waiting for the "Fixed" batches to get here.

Oh really? Hmm. My first one G2X's hdmi worked and my friend's also works.
My HDMI port works great with a generic 6' cable.
I think mine is a dud too..i got a warranty replacement because my old one was overheating like crazy, then this one is doing the same thing... ?? .... but this one the HDMI doesn't work...the one before this the HDMI stopped working as well.....could it be clockworkmod? things did start going hinky on both phones after i installed that....hmmmm, maybe i will test it w/ stock recovery..just to see....i doubt it tho....

I have clockwork recovery with external SD and HDMI works fine
I thought my HDMI out was totally borked, but it works if you jam the plug in really, really hard.
Any movement of the phone/cord causes tearing on screen and then cuts out, making it useless in general. Tried 3 different cord. Grrrr....

I got one from Amazon that didn't work [thought it was the phone]. Picked one up at Best Buy yesterday {$30 ouch} and it works.
I bought one from Amazon. It works fine when my phone is displayed on the TV. But if I try to play a video it shows a few seconds then goes black and then repeats.
Weird.

What a load of crap!!! My HDMI port doesn't work either! Thats not the real issue though, I can't believe T-Mobile would charge me 9.99 to ship me a new device??? 39 Billion from AT&T and they still want to nickel and dime me. I tried to fight it, but the lady was extremely rude.
FYI, I have an April 26th batch of G2x with a HDMI cable I bought off Ebay and it works with no problems.
Mine works with the Casio 6 foot cable I purchased from Amazon. I did notice that you have to apply a bit more pressure than expected in order to assure that the cable is fully seated. It seems that the HDMI cover gets in the way a bit and the extra force is what's required to push past it.
Edit: Forgot to mention that my G2x was purchased from T-mobile on 4/20/11 with a manufacture date of 4/05/11.

[Q] Ya, Battery Died. Do I Have to Buy a New Phone cuz then this phone Sux

I got a photon q lte and the battery died.
There isn't much info online how to troubleshoot an issue for this.
I bought it from a friend about 9 months ago and I don't use sprint phone as my provider.
I don't want to buy a new phone, I am willing however to purchase a new battery, or other basic hardware to resolve the issue.
Any advice xda folks? Hope it's some informative responses. I'm not knew to the site but I never usually need to post for this kind of mysterious issue.
Thanks

...at first test clean well battery contacts under screws....and then use original charger and leave it on charger 12 or 24 hours connected.
You can buy new battery, but bye bye NFC

[Q] Which Qi charger does your new Nexus 5 work well with?

I don't have any Qi chargers handy, I sold my Nexus charger with the Nexus 4 a few months ago. So, in looking for something that works with the Nexus 5 I thought it would be useful to have a thread where others can look up compatibility.
I remember the Nexus 4 did not work very well with the charger that came with the Lumia 920.
I'll probably look for a few cheap ones to do this mod
Qi Charger in Nightstand
Hopefully the Nexus 5 will work with something like that.
My N4 didn't work at all with the Nokia wireless charger. Let's hope this one does. I'm getting it tomorrow so I'll report back when I get a change to try it out.

Awesome! Yeah my N4 would start charging and then stop when on the Nokia charger. Worked great on the Nexus charger, but it slipped. The new Nexus 5 charger looks cool, but if I can use a cheap one, I won't be spending $50 on a new one.

That's how I got the one I had. I ended up sending the 920 back because even though I had paid full retail price for it, AT&T refused to unlock it. LOL why was it a mistake? I liked the camera, but no customization and apps sucked.

Yeah the n4 did that as well. It works for about 10 seconds then drops, then starts working again, then repeats. Overall, it never charged. If anything it lost charge.

Glad i didn't get it then. Gonna wait for the google one. Probably be in short supply and take ages tho.
I got this one for my nexus 4, and it works even better with the nexus 5.
Shipping was also very quick (about 1 week) considering it shipped from China.
It comes with two cords but no power supply. Recommends 1.5 amps.

[WARNING] PMA Wireless Charging defective on LG G3

As many of you know, the AT&T LG G3 is not like the rest of the G3's when it comes to wireless charging. The AT&T unit uses the PMA standard and not the QI type chargers.
Unfortunately after spending a few hundred dollars on wireless chargers and 2 Quick circle cases, I have discovered that the charging unit on the phone is defective.
I purchased 3 Duracell Power-mat chargers along with 2 quick circle cases.
First LG G3 with Circle case charged fine for the first day then failed. I guessed it might have been the case so I purchased new case and tried the new case on a new Power-mat - The phone did not charge. No charging light, no charging animation
I exchanged my LG G3 at best buy and tested the wireless charging in store - and the existing cases and the new LG G3 charged just fine.
After 24 hours the phone stopped charging... I tested my iPhone 4 and the battery packs and on the Power-mat and both charged fine.
Once again I exchanged the phone and used the new Circle case to charge - this time the wireless charging worked for a couple days and again this morning it stopped working.
I went back to best buy and was able to confirm that the circle case and the power-mats are all working and its the actual phone that has stopped working for the third time. 3 phones out of 3 phones have failed after no more than 48 hours using wireless charging - I have also noticed that others in the non-branded LG forum are having the same issues with the PMA charging.
I contacted LG and the lady wants me to send in my phone and be left with out a phone for a couple weeks so that they can repair it and see if there is anything wrong with it.
Please chime in if you are having the same issue.
Equipment involved in testing:
3 x LG G3 (AT&T) - all three failed
2 x LG G3 Quick Circle Case for AT&T - both still functioning and work on new AT&T LG G3's
3 x Duracell Powermat - All three still work with iPhone 4 and Galaxy s3 with case
Contact information for LG
800-243-0000
Thats something.
Your Canadian neighbors are using pma too.
Maybe lg finally realizes PMA IS JUNK.
I cant even find a pma case here in canada.
Always have to look at AT&T case.
I .... AT&T. Don't need there logo on my phone

Thanks for starting the thread!!!
I gave ya thanks also. I talked to Customer Service yesterday at AT&T and I have to now bring my phone to a repair shop to Tuesday due to the Holiday. I talked to the repair center and they said that basically that I will have to be sent a new phone, because although the person I talked to believed me she said she would have to call att to get me a new phone sent because they don't stock the LG G3 obviously. It sucks that I am gonna have to flash my phone back to stock and what not. Obviously there is a major problem with the phone and Powermat charging. I hope LG figures it out and its just a hardware fix. Maybe something is tripping software wise and blocking it from charging. I would almost bet its software because it seems like it wants to connect when you first place it on the mat it makes a sound then disconnects. AT&T put something in the software and the hardware of the phone to block QI charging so I guess they didn't do enough testing with the software to block the QI on the ATT phone. I think it's ridiculous to force someone to use Powermat and not give you the option to choose because ATT is part of the powermat alliance or whatever the crap the group is called. The only way powermat will take off is if the i-sheep include it as a feature in the Iphone 6. It is rumored that NFC may be on the Horizon for the new Iphone and you can bet your ass if they add wireless charging it will be that powermat crap. The only good thing is we will see accessories out the azz for powermat if iphone got wireless charging.
Anyways Great thread 5*
Leroy
I was on the phone with ATT for an hour to get a replacement. They said since the phone charges correctly with the cord it wasn't anything wrong with the phone. I had to speak to a supervisor as well as an LG rep to tell ATT it was a hardware issue and that it was covered under warranty just to get a refurbish phone sent to me. Looking at this I want to send back the referb and keep my original phone knowing its bound to happen again. Maan this sucks. I like my wireless charging.
I picked up the LG Quick view case and powermat charger from Att store 2 weeks ago. No issues at all except I noticed my battery life was cut in half. Not sure why but I quit using them both and battery is back what it was. Both are going on Ebay.
Well the day i click the link on to read this forum is the day my wireless charging stopped, this must be a software issue cause how can it just stop right out of the blue, I'm blaming this thread for stopping my wireless charging when i read it lol, seriously there must be a way to get it to work. Is it confirmed that it is the phone and not the case? I was wirelessly charging for about a month.

Neverends,
Where were those other generic threads you were talking about that people were starting to have the same problems? I am just trying to do more research but have yet to find any other threads discussing this same problem. On another note I guess 2moro I will get another phone ordered, heck maybe I should wait because I would hate to keep blowing thru phones if it ends up being a software issue.
can you try a factory reset? I have a feeling this issue is like so many other little quirks of the phone (things that just stop working all of a sudden) and it's a software issue (like the Aux cable issues)

I was gonna do that b4 calling ATT back. I have read that it didn't help in another thread. I am rooted so I have got to flash back to stock anyways. I bought a new router and tried flashing dd wrt on it so it's got My phone flashing behind today already. I will report back after I get it flashed back to factory settings though.

I had the same exact issue. Worked fine for a month and then all of a sudden one day stopped working for no apparent reason. I tried factory resetting and this did not work. Had to fight with AT&T to replace the phone as they just don't get it. Finally was replaced and works fine again. Let's see how long it lasts this time...

Apparently there is some competent people that work there. I actually got someone that knew about the issue. He remoted into my phone and looked for a reading and said yep I see there is an error with your wireless charging. I played stupid and am glad I flashed back to factory.
oh ya by the way going back to stock no root did not fix anything lol. Anyways the rep got me a new phone shipped out no hassle or problems at all.
He actually told me that they knew what was wrong and said that it isn't going to affect many people because a lot of people are not going to wireless charge if there is any truth to that, but that an update would not be pushed out for awhile for the fix. He said the new phone that they are sending me will not stop charging. Anyways we will see how that goes.

Wait a min so someone for at&t said this? And how did they remotely connect to it and check if the wireless charging works or if it shows and error cause that would actually help to pinpoint if its hardware or software, from the looks of it its faulty software that screws up the hardware cause if they send that ota and it doesn't work on phones that stopped wireless charging then it sucks. Hope that when that fix comes it restores phones that had the issue. That rep just answered one question but opened the door to a whole lot more.

That he did but from his choice of words which I could not by no means quote verbatim, he acted like it was software that messed up the hardware. He did get on my phone remotely because I had to give him access. It was pretty neat a little great play button overlay came up in the middle of my phone and stated an agent can see my screen. You know in the end your right...all he did was give me a reason to ask more questions but I had way much to do and still do than to talk to him. If my new phone bugs out then I am gonna have to make time to find out.
From my experience with multiple phones and multiple cases, I do not believe it is a software issue... I believe the actual hardware fails.... I do think see how restoring using LG flash tools would not resolve a software glitch

But no means do I actually know what's going on but anything is possible. It could be a situation where a software setting being set wrong could has caused a piece of hardware to short out. Ex: The software setting for allowed voltage was set to high and shorted a resistor for the hardware that controls wireless charging voltage and when the rep remotes into my phone he saw a reading of "null". So to sum up a software problem caused irreversible hardware damage.
One thing I can say indefinitely is the rep I dealt with said there was a memo on it and when he remotes into My phone he immediately within 30 seconds found what he was looking for and confirmed I needed a replacement phone. He then said it was a software problem that couldn't be corrected at the time.
I just hope the New phone I get is corrected, as he assured me it would. Who knows if it will. I hope whatever the cause LG and AT&T either finds the solution or have already.
Interesting, this insinuates a software change on the refurbished handset. Are you going to end up with a different build number? How long till it shows up in official builds? (These are just out loud musings.) Sorry to hear that there's yet another poor implementation on this phone. I think they were trying too hard to get out in front of Apple's announcement and the IFA.

When it gets here you bet I will go thru it with a tooth in a comb to see if there is any difference maybe they actually changed a piece a hardware in the New one to compensate for a software deficiency. If it stays fixed I am sure we will find out the truth way later or possibly never.
One thing the rep did say is that if there is a software update it would be a while because not a lot of people were utilizing the wireless charging.

LG V10 will soon have Wireless Charging!

http://phandroid.com/2015/10/14/lg-v10-wireless-charging-back-cover/
Appears as though it'll be made available over seas first, but coming none the less.
Hopefully we will see those stickers pop up on ebay for $10 or so to enable the wireless charging? Whats the time frame for something like that?
Well I'd say no we don't have any wireless charging sticker options yet, because the pin locations are a bit different than previous LG devices. Though it's only a matter of time, from the videos and photos I've seen of the back of the device without the cover and the inside of the cover, There is definitely a set being utilized for the nfc antenna that comes attached to the battery cover and then another set that are not being touched by anything.
I reached out to LG this morning in regards to the back cover and they gave me the very generic response that they do not know of a wireless back cover and they don't know if or when one would be released...
Wow, can't believe the V10 doesn't have this by default! LG behind again in putting in the most valuable feature IMO. Wow, wow! Was ready to pull the trigger on the V10 too! But this is a must have for me.

I can't grasp this logic at all. Even with wireless charging, the phone still needs to be tethered to a certain spot...so who cares if it's wireless or wired?

I've been using Wireless Charging since 2012 first with the Droid DNA. Then in 2013 I got Verizon's LG G2, which also had wireless charging build in. Got tired of the G2, and finally got the G4 and lived without wireless charging for about a month or two. Was hell! Hated plugging it in every night. One night, I reached over to get the G4, and the dam wire dumped everything off my nightstand around 2am. It was a bloddy nightmare! Luckily, the Chinese came along to save the day and offered the first G4 wireless sticker, that didn't work, without a mod.
So now comes the V10, and no wireless charging? Haven't you seen the Samsung commercials mocking the Iphone for no wireless charging. This is 2015, not 1960 for crying out loud! lol
But I must say, at least the V10 has a fingerprint reader. That's getting closer to being as good as the Samsung Edge Plus. But LG again fails to have the best technology on their flagship device.
@MicroMod777 hope you get it cause we need some devs over here. You won't be disappointed it's a great phone.

So now comes the V10, and no wireless charging? Haven't you seen the Samsung commercials mocking the Iphone for no wireless charging. This is 2015, not 1960 for crying out loud! lol
But I must say, at least the V10 has a fingerprint reader. That's getting closer to being as good as the Samsung Edge Plus. But LG again fails to have the best technology on their flagship device.

Wireless chargers still has to be plugged in to an outlet so it's no different than having to plug your phone via the charging port. But you can just lift the phone off the wireless charger blah blah blah, big deal. It takes less than a sec to unplug your phone. You should probably clear your nightstand to avoid dumping all your crap, and was it set at the end of the table that you had to reach over and drag everything to the ground? Just wait for the case if you're so picky.

I've been using Wireless Charging since 2012 first with the Droid DNA. Then in 2013 I got Verizon's LG G2, which also had wireless charging build in. Got tired of the G2, and finally got the G4 and lived without wireless charging for about a month or two. Was hell! Hated plugging it in every night.

What's the complaint here anyway? Were talking about a feature that will be supported imminently. Whether with an OEM back cover to support it or 3rd party sticker, It'll be the same slow identical charge any other wireless device charges at. Worse case scenario, you have to plug in a usb for a few weeks. And if you jump on the LG promotion, you wont even have to do that. You can charge the secondary battery in the cradle and swap as needed. In my eyes, that's better than wireless charging... No wait other than the time it takes to swap the battery and reboot the phone.

Don't see why phones would be getting rid of it. Wireless stickers are always cheap and don't work as good as the real thing.

Well see by January 2016 when I qualify for zero down with T-Mobile and do the On Demand Jump. Right now I can't justify spending $300+ for a down payment on it without wireless charging.
BTW, last night I tried to port the V10 software to the G4! Didn't go so well. lol Almost thought I bricked my G4. But thankfully I recovered it.

I don't know either companies growing cheap it is disappointing. I am sure they will provide a wireless charging back as they did with g4

The question is, which would you rather take: wireless charging (will it be fast wireless charging) or the Qualcomm’s QFE2550 closed-loop antenna tuning solution, known as Qualcomm TruSignal antenna boost technology. Let's not forget, 1 hour 5 minutes to go from 0 to 100%, currently. I figured that's what's on the inside of my back cover, but I could be wrong. Every time I walk in best buy, I see the new antennas you slap on the back of iphones/galaxys.
Personally, I've used wireless and wired. I've got galaxy S6 active and love the wireless for work, only because my plug doesn't drop behind the desk when I disconnect.
But, wireless isn't necessary for me. It might be for the rest of you.
Off topic, I'm much more in love with the 808 with 4GB ram then anything. I've got 30 apps running and I don't see any lag. ...yet. no aggressive memory killing the apps, which I love. Yes the gpu isn't as powerful but I haven't found anything that slows it down (I'm looking at you, modern combat 5). The 4GB ram and 64GB base is just making this phone bad ass. I bought it for the camera and movie capabilities. Removable battery and microsd slot just make me love it more. Just waiting for my stabilizer to come in from Amazon for my tripod.
Does anyone know how to charge while the phone is off ?

People in other forum saying if you plug in your phone, then you can swtich it off, but you can't do it the other way around.
